Tribe fall again, Kluber still winless
If it wasnât for bad luck, the Cleveland Indiansâ
Corey Kluberwould have none at all. Admittedly, Kluber hasnât been as sharp as he was last seasonâbut even if he was, heâd have to be lights out with this struggling offense.
Mike Avilesprovided the only offense with a two-run home run, scoring
Jason Kipnis. The defense wasnât much help either, as they committed three of them on the day.
The Orioles game against the White Sox was postponed due to safety concerns as protests continue around the Camden Yards area. Commissioner Rob Manfred was in Baltimore, and hasnât ruled out the possibility of playing games at Nationals park should things continue. Protests are in regards to a young black man who died in police custody.
In this weekâs âWhoâs hot, whoâs notâ, there arenât as many bright spots for the Indians right nowâbut if you look hard you can find a few. Michael Brantley is rounding into form following back stiffness, and Danny Salazar has been sharp since being recalled. But for all the good, thereâs more bad. T.J. house has yet to show why he won a spot in the rotation, and Michael Bourn has been dropped to the ninth spot in the order following his struggles.
